Avis sur Equitable Advisors

Avantages

Comprehensive goal focused planning approach. The culture emphasizing helping people rather than "closing deals". Great support at every level for advisors coming into the industry.

Inconvénients

Must be self motivated, no one is going to do the hard work for you.

Avantages

Great company if you have an entrepreneurial mindset and know how to market yourself well. Even better if you have a book of business to take with you or already have a well established network. Lot's of valuable resources at your disposal assuming you have prospects or clients to utilize them on. Open architecture within the company gives you a competitive advantage against other firms who only push their proprietary products.

Inconvénients

Hard place to start if you're new to the business. You're not really given any leads and kind of left to fend for yourself. Two options when it comes to pay (either salary $2k a month plus reduced commissions or all commissions with a bonus)

Avantages

Opportunity for fast growth, has an emphasis on culture and creating a positive impact on the lives of others

Inconvénients

Fast paced environment that’s not for everyone

Avantages

I've been with Equitable for 6 years and have loved every minute of it! It's a great company to work for. I started out as an assistant and moved into the Marketing and Events Manager role -- there is potential for growth! Everyone is super friendly, very helpful and truly a TEAM.

Inconvénients

I do not have any cons other than in the beginning I struggled with work life balance -- but eventually, I found my "groove".

Avantages

unlimited earning potential, capability of being your own boss.

Inconvénients

totally self starting, be ready to figure it out yourself.

Avantages

Helpful staff, room for growth

Inconvénients

None really. You must work hard.

Avantages

This was not the career for me. Nearly 20 years later I'm still here and look forward to every day. Supportive and engaged management. You can be successful if you like working in a collaborative environment or are more motivated to work solo - it's up to you. Excellent training and educational opportunities. Diverse and open-minded colleagues. Build a practice of clients you enjoy working with, not who you're told you must work with.

Inconvénients

Every career has its moments. I look at frustrations as puzzles to be figured out.
